Hand-picked in Cincinnati: the 5-star hotel The Lytle Park Hotel. Your suitespot booking includes breakfast for two, a room upgrade subject to availability, hotel credit and VIP service – over €500 in value.
The Lytle Park Hotel Cincinnati · Central Business DistrictFor this guide we reviewed the best hotels in Cincinnati and chose one: a luxury hotel on Lytle Park with thirteen categories. What that means for booking is below.Our choice for Cincinnati is The Lytle Park Hotel on Pike Street, on Lytle Park in the Central Business District. In our ranking it stands at 4.1 out of 5, a night starts at 357 euros, and it belongs to Marriott Bonvoy’s Autograph Collection.
Why we recommend it: Because it sits inside a 1909 building in the Lytle Park Historic District – the one downtown block where the towers stop and a park begins. Inside are 106 rooms, the restaurant Subito with northern Italian cooking and the rooftop bar Vista at Lytle Park. The park with the Taft Museum of Art is at the door, the ballpark 500 metres on, the Ohio 800. Our recommended category is called River View.
Thirteen categories, six with a set view – and two of those with a partial one.
The hotel offers 13 categories, six suites among them – with names like Lincoln, Taft, Blossom, Talia, Meadow and Rainwater.
Six of them have a set view. Three face the river, one the park. And two offer a partial view of the Ohio. From there the river is visible, but not across its full width.
Our recommendation is called River View – two categories with the full river view. Anyone who wants one should name the full view when enquiring and distinguish it expressly from the partial one.
The package: breakfast, upgrade on arrival, regular points and status benefits, early check-in and late check-out, a welcome gift – and no minimum stay.
Our advice: Say “full river view”, not just “river view”. At a hotel that carries both gradations, that is the difference between what you expect and what you get.
The Lytle Park Hotel stands on Pike Street at Lytle Park, on the eastern edge of downtown – 500 metres from the Great American Ball Park, 700 from Fountain Square, 800 from the Roebling Bridge over the Ohio, two kilometres from Over-the-Rhine, three from the Cincinnati Museum Center, five from the zoo and 15 from the airport.
Our recommendation is therefore for anyone who wants downtown on foot without living between office towers – and for those coming for a game, a concert or a meeting.
What lies within reach: Lytle Park with the Taft Museum of Art, at the door; the Great American Ball Park of the Cincinnati Reds, 500 metres; the Roebling Bridge of 1866, a walk across into Kentucky, 800 metres.
For orientation: Over-the-Rhine with Findlay Market and the brewery halls lies two kilometres north, the Museum Center in the Union Terminal of 1933 three kilometres west, the zoo five. Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky airport is 15 kilometres away – on the other side of the river. Downtown one walks; across the river one drives.
The Lytle Park Hotel offers 13 categories, six suites among them.
The rooms: two Meadow, one Rainwater and four Rooms – two of them with the full river view, two with a partial one. Our recommended category is the pair with the full view.
The suites: Lincoln, Taft, Blossom Executive facing the park, Talia Executive facing the river, Terran Executive and one further Executive Suite.
On the view: this hotel’s motif is the Ohio with Lytle Park – three categories face the river, two with a partial view, and one the park.
What applies equally to every category: breakfast for two, the upgrade on arrival subject to availability, regular points and status benefits with Marriott Bonvoy, early check-in and late check-out subject to availability and a welcome gift.
A night at the luxury hotel in Cincinnati starts at 357 euros.
A minimum stay is expressly not required: a single night can be booked. Included are: breakfast for two, an upgrade on arrival subject to availability, regular points and status benefits, early check-in and late check-out and a welcome gift.
When it is loveliest: in April, May and June and in September and October, when the hills above the river turn.
What belongs to Cincinnati: baseball. From April to September the Reds play five hundred metres from the hotel; downtown is full on home days.
When to ask early: for home games, in May for the Flying Pig Marathon and in September for Oktoberfest Zinzinnati.
How long to stay: two to three nights – downtown and the park, an evening in Over-the-Rhine, a day at the Museum Center.
And whatever the date: you get the suitespot benefits in the quietest week of the year just as you do in the busiest.
Cincinnati is a city that still wears its 19th-century wealth: seven hills, the river between them, and along its banks a townscape for which German immigrants left the name Over-the-Rhine.

First Lytle Park: at the door, with the Taft Museum of Art in a country residence of 1820.

The package at this hotel is breakfast, upgrade, points and status benefits, check-in and check-out and a gift.
What our travel advisors arrange most often: the distinction between full and partial river view, for the reason stated above, the table at Subito and tickets for a home game – because the ballpark is five hundred metres away.
